Hi, my son’s rugby team is in a cup final on Sunday and I wanted to record a version of Jim Telfer’s iconic Lions speech in a dramatic, stirring voice. It’s about 220 words. Can anyone get it done tomorrow? I know that’s pushing it, but I thought I’d ask! Thank you, Nick
Text: The easy bit has passed. Selection for the cup team is the easy bit. You have an awesome responsibility on your shoulders, awesome responsibility. This is your Everest, boys. Very few ever get a chance in rugby terms to get for the top of Everest. You have the chance today.
It’s performance that matters. If you put in the performance, you’ll get what you deserve. No luck attached to it. You need to stick one on them, to get right up in their faces and turn them back, knock them back. Outdo what they do. Outjump them, outscrum them, outruck them, outdrive them, outtackle them, until they’re sick of you.
Remember how you depend on each other at every phase, teams within teams, scrums, lineouts, ruck ball, tackles.
They are better than you’ve played against so far. They are better individually or they wouldn’t be there. So it’s an awesome task you have and it will only be done if everybody commits themself now.
You are privileged. You are the chosen few. Many are considered but few are chosen. No one’s going to do it for you. You have to find your own solace — your own drive, your ambition, your own inner strength, because the moment’s arrived for the greatest game of your life.
